SÖLICITÖR – New EP “All Debts on Death” out now via Gates Of Hell Records

New 7-inch from one of North America’s most exciting new speed metal bands!

Hot off the heels of 2020’s no-holds-barred “Spectral Devastation”, SÖLICITÖR returns with the stopgap “All Debts on Death” 7-inch that charts new territory while still offering first-pumping speed metal anthems!

“All Debts on Death” was recorded in late February 2021 at Sentinel Studios with producer/engineer Detto, who has recently gained attention for his organic production jobs for death metal bands Cerebral Rot, Mortiferum and Oxygen Destroyer. Detto tracked the band on half-inch tape, then recorded the tape to a digital program where guitars and vocals were laid down, ensuring a full and heavy sound.

As a natural function of their collaboration with Detto, SÖLICITÖR ventured into new territory regarding production values. The two songs are devoid of effects, albeit some minor reverb on the chorus on the vocals, although vocalist Amy Lee Carlson opted to completely forego doubled harmonies. The rhythm section of Damon Cleary-Erickson (bass) and Johan Waymire (drums) is much higher in the mix, further complementing the guitar duo of Matt Vogan and Pat Fry. However, the “less is more” approach for studio production doesn’t hinder the two songs. “Killer for Hire” is a classic SÖLICITÖR speed-burner, complete with a fist-bumping chorus, while “Megalomaniac” ventures into new territory, including riffs that bring to mind legendary Norwegian black metallers Darkthrone, topped off by Carlson’s soaring vocals.

As positive signs gradually start to emerge from the pandemic, SÖLICITÖR is chomping at the bit to return to the live stage. In the meantime, the band is slowly assembling the pieces for their next studio album – due sometime in 2022. Consider “All Debts on Death” a sign of what’s to come!
